A slow but powerful story that explores human nature and the choices we make based on the experiences we’ve had.

Between the multiple side stories involving incest, violence against women, and sex-trafficking that was down-played as a “woman’s duty” and stoicism, this book was insulting. Add to it the over-arching racism used to progress the story and at times was used as white-saviorism? No thanks. I’m shocked it received such rave reviews. Finished it only because I had to know the (convoluted) ending and discover who killed Jimmy Quinn.
